'If  we  work  upon  marble,  it  will  perish.  If  we 
work  upon  brass,  time  will  efface  it.  If  we  rear 
temples,  they  will  crumble  into  dust,  but  if  we 
work  upon  immortal  souls,  if  we  imbue  them  with 
the  principles,  with  the  just  fear  of  God  and  the 
love  of  fellowmen,  we  engrave  on  those  tablets 
something  that  will  brighten  all  eternity." 

....  Daniel  Webster

PREFACE 


Our  years  at  W.H.S.  make  up  a 
large  part  of  the  road  leading  toward 
our  life's  goal.  Many  times  it  has 
been  a  hard  and  treacherous  path, 
winding  through  difficulties  and  re¬ 
sponsibilities.  The  understandings  we 
have  gained  in  these  situations  should 
prove  valuable  stepping-stones  as  we 
approach  adulthood.  Now  as  these 
years  draw  to  a  close,  we  find  ourselves 
ready  to  step  onto  the  main  highway 
of  life.  Our  success  will  depend  on 
what  use  we  make  of  the  knowledge, 
wisdom,  and  insight  we  have  gained 
in  our  stay  at  high  school.  No  longer 
shall  we  have  the  guidance  of  our 
teachers  and  principal.  Without  them 
we  face  the  problems  of  the  future. 
But,  as  graduates  of  so  fine  a  school 
as  Winchester  High,  we  are  prepared 
to  accept,  and  willingly  accept  the 
challenge.

EDWARD  R.  BURNS 


For  four  years  it  has  been  our  privi¬ 
lege  to  know  you.  Your  good  nature, 
sense  of  humor,  sympathetic  under¬ 
standing,  and  unfailing  friendship 
have  made  our  years  at  Winchester 
High  the  richer.  We  cannot  hope  to 
repay  our  immeasurable  debt  to  you 
in  any  way.  We  do  hope  that  in 
dedicating  our  book  to  you,  we  in  some 
way  indicate  the  strength  of  our 
feeling  for  you.

ABERJONA  STAFF 


The  1957  Aberjona  is  the  product  of  the  coop¬ 
eration,  imagination,  and  plain  hard  work  of  a 
great  many  people.  Its  publication  has  engaged  the 
skills  and  talents  of  a  variety  of  seniors. 

Alfred  Doherty,  our  editor,  has  been  assisted  by 
an  energetic  and  alert  executive  committee  which 
includes  Carol  Eaton,  Warren  Fowler  and  Mary 
Kiley.  Theirs  has  been  the  task  of  assembling  and 
coordinating  the  present  year  book. 

Emily  Allen  and  John  Nichols  have  headed  an 
advertising  staff  which  has  broken  all  previous 
records.  This,  we  know,  is  no  accident,  but  the 
result  of  a  well  conceived  and  executed  campaign. 

The  Art  Committee  inspired  by  the  chairmen 
Jane  Bowman  and  Regina  Mingolelli  has  been 
responsible  for  the  new  look — fresh  and  sharp  and 


modern.  Carol  Caputo,  Mary  Jean  Newton,  and 
Susan  Stanwood  are  the  talented  members  of  this 
indispensible  group. 

Organization,  preparation,  and  production  all 
lead  up  to  the  most  vital  factor — Sales.  The  am¬ 
bitious,  imaginative  Subscription  Staff  has  been 
well  repaid  for  its  heroic  efforts.  This  year  sales 
of  the  Aberjona  hit  a  new  high  and  it  is  a  real 
satisfaction  to  all  those  who  worked  on  its  publi¬ 
cation  to  know  that  so  many  students  are  willing  to 
support  this  venture.  We  all  hope  that  the  1957 
Aberjona  comes  up  to  expectations;  that  it  will 
please,  amuse,  and  interest  you  when  you  receive 
it;  and  that  in  the  future  it  will  be  a  touchstone  to 
recall  your  years  at  high  school  so  full  of  many 
memories.

To  our  teachers,  inspiring,  encouraging  and 
guiding  our  every  effort,  we  extend  our  heartfelt 
gratitude  and  a  pledge  to  continue  in  the  ways 
which  they  have  opened  to  us.  They  have  initiated 
us  into  the  joys  and  satisfactions  of  learning  and 
have  revealed  to  us  the  heritage  that  is  ours  for  the 
taking.  They  have  emplanted  in  us  the  conviction 
that  there  is  no  greater  happiness  than  that  which 
results  from  a  job  well  done.  Our  faculty  has 
quickened  in  us  a  sense  of  pride  in  our  school,  our 
town,  and  our  country,  and  they  have  pointed  out 
our  responsibilities  as  citizens.  Nor  can  we  forget 
that  they  have  graciously  and  unstintingly  support¬ 
ed  every  venture  of  ours,  whether  social,  cultural  or 
athletic,  despite  the  time  and  sacrifice  that  their 
cooperation  so  often  entailed.  Their  continued 
generosity  in  giving  of  their  time,  of  their  know¬ 
ledge  and  of  themselves  is  a  pattern  for  us  to 
attempt  to  match  in  our  own  lives.

CLASS  HISTORY 


It  was  wonderful  spending  our  first  high  school 
year  in  a  building  all  our  own,  in  spite  of  creaking 
stairs,  peeling  paint,  subterranean  lockers,  creak¬ 
ing  stairs,  corrugated  desks,  warped  floors,  and 
creaking  stairs.  We  departed  with  memories  of

proverbial  orange  .  .  .  our  undefeated  basketball 
team  and  our  almost  undefeated  football  and  base¬ 
ball  teams  .  .  .  the  assembly  at  which  we  had  our 
first  lesson  in  ratio  and  proportion,  our  class  total 
of  108  boys  to  108  girls  .  .  .  chain  gangs  on  the

Under  the  leadership  of  Bill  Mason,  Roger 
Symmes,  Mary  Kiley  and  Mary  Dowling,  we  set 
out  to  do  bigger  and  better  things  our  sophomore 
year.  Remember  .  .  .  "all  Gaul  is  divided  into  three 
parts"  .  .  .  (we  were  divided  into  two  parts,  dashing 
back  and  forth  between  the  Boston  Arena  and  the 
Boston  Garden,  to  watch  WHS  capture  a  double 
crown)  .  .  .  Rita  Amico,  Carol  Eaton,  Liz  Hottel

.  .  .  Stooping  to  Conquer  the  bubblers  .  .  .  the 
annual  GIC  Auction  .  .  .  teachers,  as  well  as  stu¬ 
dents,  packing  up  their  belongings  and  crossing 
the  street  to  the  new  high  school,  where  we  were 
to  spend  our  junior  and  senior  years. 

After  an  extended  summer  vacation,  we  finally 
entered  the  new  building  as  upper  classmen.  Things

CLASS  PROPHECY 


"It  hardly  seems  as  if  time  could  have  flown  so 
fast,  but  here  it  is  1982  already,  and  we,  Mary 
Codding  and  Bill  Edgar  (alias  "Mac"  and  "Whit") 
are  at  the  twenty-fifth  Reunion  of  the  Class  of  '57. 
This  is  quite  a  get-together  with  almost  everyone 
from  our  class  here.  At  the  head  table  is  our  Presi¬ 
dent,  Peter  Dee,  who  is  now  known  in  the  theatrical 
world  of  Broadway  and  Hollywood  as  "Pierre  Darl¬ 
ing".  He  has  starred  in  many  of  Cleverone  Com¬ 
pany's  Oscar  winning  movies,  and  has  appeared 
recently  in  "Love  Me  Tenderly".  Class  Secretary, 
Mary  Murphy,  Pierre's  make-up  girl,  has  started  a 
line  of  cosmetics  called  MM-MM  (Mary  Murphy — 
Mud  Make-up).  Moneybags  McElholm  isn't  here 
tonight.  He's  been  treasurer  of  so  many  organi¬ 
zations,  he  decided  to  retire  for  a  cooler  climate — 
it  was  getting  a  little  too  hot  for  him!  Marie 
Amico  and  Vice-President  Mike  Callahan  have  just 
arrived  at  the  head  table.  As  predicted,  they  were 
the  first  graduates  of  1957  to  be  married.  Taking 
pictures  of  the  officers  is  Christopher  Michelsen, 
photographer  at  large.  His  specialty  is  pin-ups, 
and  he  uses  such  famous  models  as  "Vampire" 
Vanessa  Ahlfors,  Linda  "The  Body"  Branneman, 
"Curvacious"  Carol  Eaton,  and  Sally  "Legs"  Beal." 

"It's  amazing  how  people  can  change  so  much 
in  twenty-five  years.  Both  Neil  Kerrigan  and  Dave 
Ambrose  are  now  bald  and  they  have  thirteen 
children  each.  Liz  Hottel  has  really  aged  since 
her  Round  Pencil  Factory  burned  and  she  found 
the  insurance  sold  to  her  by  Ken  Brown's  Better 
Business  Bureau  was  worthless.  Albert  "The  Boss" 
Lynch  is  rolling  in  money,  but  he  is  being  treated 
for  ulcers,  and  finds  that  he  is  allergic  to  that 
"greenstuff"  which  he  has  so  much  of.  Stevie 
Stone  isn't  the  same  since  her  electric  snowplow 
broke  and  she  had  to  really  start  shoveling  snow 


for  a  lining.  One  person  who  will  never  change 
is  Bachelor  Bill  Mason  who  is  the  toast  of  two 
contirrents  with  all  kinds  of  enchanting  women 
chasing  him.  Wooing  the  women  who  chase  after 
Bill  is  Dave  "The  Dog"  Bergquist — (He  realizes 
now  the  mistakes  he  made  in  High  School  and  is 
trying  to  make  up  for  them)." 

"Many  famous  members  of  the  class  are  here 
tonight  .  .  .  Kirby  Baker,  superatomic  scientist  .  .  . 
Whitney  Smith,  who  gave  up  his  citizenship  to 
become  dictator  of  East  Zanghi  .  .  .  Bob  Weaver 
and  John  Zirkel,  famous  golfers,  who  recently  won 
the  Jackie  Hogan  Championships  .  .  .  Helga  Ham- 
merschmidt,  diplomat  from  Austria  to  the  United 
States  .  .  .  Leo  "Blades"  Callahan,  Joe  Cussen  and 
John  Kelleher,  rival  stars  of  the  Ice  Capades,  -Ice 
Follies  and  Ice  Chips  .  .  .  Jazz  pianist  Rita  Amico 
and  her  accompanyist,  "Muscles  Moe"  Russo,  who 
plays  a  cool  sax  .  .  .  Sandy  "Soft-foot"  Burr  and 
Nancy  "Light-toes"  Towle,  who  run  a  school  of 
dance  to  teach  the  new  and  exciting  Barbaro 
Bounce  ...  Sir  Bradley  Ross,  expert  on  interplan- 
atory  explorations  .  .  .  Mademoiselle  Marie  "Notice 
the  Styles"  Kiley,  whose  fashion  designs  have  upset 
all  of  Paris,  and  made  Christian  Dior  her  sidekick 
.  .  .  Janet  Chaffe,  winning  woman  wrestler  .  .  . 
Hot-rod  Queen  Andy  Swan,  with  Judy  Madden,  who 
picks  up  the  pieces  and  places  bets  against  Andy 
on  the  side  .  .  .  Clever  Cartoonist  "Mad"  Mary 
Jellison,  who  has  a  comic  strip  called  "Jellybeans" 

.  .  .  Character  Actress  Sara  Jane  Woodward,  with 
her  publicity  Manager,  Dave  Moore,  who  also 
coaches  Tennis  Star  and  Olympic  Champion  Dottie 
Smith  (she  eats  Wheaties)  .  .  .  Mary  Lou  "Love  Me 
True"  Schumacker,  first  woman  Governor  in  the 
state  of  New  Jersey  .  .  .  Bob  "Heartthrob"  Kugler, 
who  has  recently  replaced  Univac  .  .  .  Pucky  Perri- 
tano,  the  new  Olympic  weight  lifting  champion, 
replacing  Jim  "Hit  Him"  Ruma." 

"While  we've  been  talking,  many  more  members 


52 


of  the  class  have  been  coming  in  .  .  .  Ron  and 
Quent  (which  twin  has  the  Toni)  Roberts  are 
coaches  for  the  All  American  Girl's  Basketball 
Team,  which  stars  Mary  Dowling  and  Alice  Fitz¬ 
gerald — not  to  mention  Jean  Heard  who  is  now 
six-foot-two  .  .  .  Richie  O'Brien,  with  those  two 
beautiful  blondes,  Mary  Laird  and  Janet  Barnard 
at  his  side,  is  placing  bets  for  the  1982  Kentucky 
Derby.  He  thinks  Foxy  Flynn  on  Slowpoke  is  going 
to  win  against  all  the  odds — even  Capering  Carter 
on  Rocketboy  .  .  .  Judy  Dellicker,  who  had  a  before- 
the-reunion  soiree,  came  in  with  Cathy  Tonan, 
who  had  a  before-the-before-the-reunion  party. 
Incidentally,  “Jude"  runs  a  very  popular  nightclub 
where  such  stars  as  the  South  American  Belle, 
Juanita  Money,  and  that  terrific  twosome  known 
as  the  “Inseparables" — Suzanne  Dresser  and  Mar¬ 
ion  Fish — perform  nightly  .  .  .  Norma  Crockett  and 
Phyllis  Schiraga,  both  happily  married  to  grads  of 
our  class  .  .  .  “Tiny  Tim"  Hill,  who  edits  his  home¬ 
town  newspaper  .  .  .  Annapolis'  own  Alfred  Doherty, 
captain  of  the  rejuvenated  Mayflower,  has  just 
discovered  a  new  continent  he's  calling  Alfredia. 
With  him  are  four  Waves,  Martha  McNulty, 
“Jake"  Jacobellis,  Patylyn  Bruno,  and  Vicky  Dat- 
tilo,  who  are  his  beautiful  bodyguards." 

“Highlights  of  the  evening  occurred  when  the

STUDENT  COUNCIL 


Under  the  capable  guidance  of  Mr.  Meredith 
Cooper,  the  Student  Council  had  a  very  successful 
year.  Headed  by  its  officers,  President  Ronald 
Roberts,  Vice-President  Paul  Sullivan,  Secretary 
Carol  Eaton,  Treasurer  Janet  Lynch,  and  the  exe¬ 
cutive  board,  the  council's  first  project  was  the 
selling  of  Sachem  book  covers  and  decals.  The 
election  of  class  officers  was  very  ably  handled  by 
the  council. 

The  student  body  chose  Ron  Roberts  to  represent 
WHS  at  Student  Government  Day  at  the  State 
House.  Also,  delegates  were  sent  to  the  conven¬ 
tions  of  The  Eastern  Massachusetts  Division  of 
Student  Councils  in  the  fall  and  spring.  With  the 
aid  of  representatives  from  Student  Council,  the 
students  chose  to  adopt  a  standard,  Winchester 
High  School  ring.  The  cafeteria  squad  has  been 
working  very  effectively  throughout  the  year.  A 
dance  late  in  March  put  the  finishing  touches  to 
a  successful  and  most  profitable  year.

RED  CROSS 


Once  again  this  year  the  Junior  Red  Cross,  under 
the  valuable  guidance  of  Miss  Helen  Bronson, 
achieved  success  in  each  undertaking  Over  one 
hundred  and  ten  dollars  was  collected  during  the 
annual  membership  drive  last  October.  Over 
thirty  representatives  and  other  students  filled 
nearly  6,000  Christmas  Seal  envelopes  for  the 
Middlesex  Health  Association.  Also,  prior  to 
Christmas,  over  2,500  holiday  cards  were  collected 
by  the  home  room  representatives  for  the  patients 
at  Bedford  Hospital.  Magazine  subscriptions  and 
covers  were  given  to  the  Winchester  Hospital,  and 
fifty  dollars  was  also  contributed  to  the  National 
Children's  Fund. 

Officers  for  the  year  were  President,  Bill  Mason; 
Vice-President,  Paul  Sullivan;  Secretary,  Mary 
Laird;  Treasurer,  Mary  Dowling;  Publicity  Chair¬ 
man,  Binkie  Clark. 

The  Red  Cross  wishes  to  express  its  thanks  to 
those  students  who  are  not  members  of  the  organi¬ 
zation  but  who  helped  make  this  year  the  success 
it  has  been.  Although  it  is  impossible  to  name 
each  homeroom  representative  because  of  limited 
space,  it  should  nevertheless  be  mentioned  that  the 
representatives  are  the  backbone  of  Red  Cross  and 
deserve  a  great  deal  of  credit  for  the  fine  job  they 
did  this  year.

The  Red  and  Black,  published  nine  times  annual¬ 
ly  by  the  Juniors  and  Seniors  of  Winchester  High 
School,  has  been  praised  highly  during  the  past 
nineteen  years  in  which  it  has  been  published. 
Important  announcements,  interesting  feature  arti¬ 
cles,  sports,  and  social  news  are  included  in  this 
publication,  and  it  is  issued  with  very  little  help 
from  the  faculty.  The  Red  and  Black  advisors,  Mr. 
Fitts  and  Miss  Skornik,  along  with  Editor-In-Chief 
Tom  Hill  and  Associate  Editor,  Dorothy  Smith,  did 
a  fine  job  in  putting  together  the  staff  and  report¬ 
ers  to  publish  nine  copies  during  1956.  Then  the 
staff  turned  over  all  responsibility  to  the  Juniors 
for  the  year  of  1  957.

QUILL  &  SCROLL 

The  WHS  order  of  National  Quill 
and  Scroll  was  added  in  1949,  and  is 
open  to  young  journalists  in  the  top 
third  of  their  class  who  have  shown 
outstanding  accomplishment  in  some 
field  of  journalism.  This  honor  is  be¬ 
stowed  on  the  lucky  journalists  during 
the  spring.  National  Quill  and  Scroll 
also  aids  the  publication  of  high  school 
publications  by  annual  contests  and 
constructive  criticism.

NATIONAL  THESPIAN  SOCIETY 


Troupe  729,  through  the  seven  years  of  its  exis¬ 
tence,  has  brought  into  its  membership  some  really 
fine  Thespians!  This  year  was  by  no  means  an 
exception.  Membership  in  the  National  Thespian 
Society  is  earned  by  putting  one  hundred  hours  of 


time  into  any  phase  of  dramatics.  Actually,  acting 
produces  only  a  small  portion  of  Thespians.  Many 
of  the  Thespians  earn  their  membership  by  work¬ 
ing  behind  the  scenes  of  the  dramatic  offerings.

CURTAIN  AND  CUE 


Firmly  settled  in  the  new  High  School,  Curtain 
and  Cue,  under  the  capable  direction  of  Mr.  Morse, 
faced  a  full  schedule.  The  club  presented  its 
second  ONE  ACT  PLAY  NIGHT,  with  the  seniors 
scoring  highly.  The  senior  play  “High  Window" 
rated  first,  and  director  Nancy  Towle  and  her 
assistant  Cindy  Dunn  received  best  director  medals. 
A  Hollywood  touch  was  added  to  this  occasion 
when  “oscars"  were  awarded  to  an  all  star  cast  of 
four.  The  winners  of  these  statues  were:  Carol 
Leverone,  Sara  Jane  Woodward,  Peter  Dee  and 
Don  Seaver.  Once  again  Christmas  Night  at  WHS 
was  presented.  A  play  “Bright  Star,"  written  and 
directed  by  faculty  member  John  McLaughlin 
and  a  show-stopping  monologue  by  sophomore, 
Linda  Baker  gave  the  show  an  interesting  and  novel 
format. 

Make-up  chairman,  Mary  Murphy,  successfully 
held  classes  for  members  interested  in  that  phase 
of  work.  The  school  radio  station  was  in  full 
operation  and  opened  a  new  field  of  work,  radio 
drama.  As  usual,  the  club  sent  a  play  to  the  State 
Drama  Festival,  anxious  to  repeat  the  success  of 
“56."  To  the  enjoyment  of  many  members,  the 
club  shared  the  responsibilities  of  the  Vaudeville 
Show  for  the  first  time.  The  four  meetings  of  the 


club  were  held,  and  this  active  year  was  closed  with 
the  annual  Spring  Apprentice  Plays.  The  Club 
was  under  the  leadership  of  President,  Peter  Dee; 
Vice-President,  Dorothy  Smith;  Secretary,  Suzanne 
Simpson;  and  Treasurer,  Paul  Sullivan.

THRIFT  ASSOCIATION 


4 


The  Thrift  Association  aims  to  develop  an  inter¬ 
est  in  saving  and  to  establish  better  habits  of 
thrift.  Under  the  guidance  of  Miss  Daniels,  in  her 
second  year  as  advisor,  the  organization  had  an¬ 
other  very  successful  year  of  banking. 

Seen  busily  at  work  every  Tuesday  morning 
checking  the  homerooms  to  see  that  everything 
was  done  properly  were  President,  Ken  Brown  and 
his  assistants,  Jim  Wakefield  and  Phil  Dryer.  In 
room  1  12,  Secretary  Linda  Branneman  and  Assist¬ 
ant  Secretaries,  Carley  Clark  and  Donna  Woodcock 
compiled  the  school  banking  totals  which  were 
typed  by  Alice  Fitzgerald. 

Once  again  the  Thrift  Association  was  extremely 
fortunate  in  having  an  efficient  group  of  home¬ 
room  bankers  and  a  cooperative  student  body  to 
help  in  making  this  a  very  fine  year.

TRAFFIC  SQUAD 


"All  down  traffic  use  the  South  stairway, 
please",  and,  "Sorry,  these  stairs  are  for  up  traffic 
only",  were  familiar  cries  around  the  school  corri¬ 
dors  during  the  first  two  terms.  The  members  of 
Mr.  Steven's  traffic  squad  really  had  their  work 
cut  out  for  them  this  year,  due  to  the  increased 
number  of  students  and  the  re-arrangement  of 
traffic,  but  they  stood  by  their  posts  faithfully  and 
soon  had  a  reasonable  semblance  of  order. 

Some  of  these  traffic  officers  also  doubled  as 
cafeteria  patrolmen,  a  job  that  requires  quite  a  bit 
of  tact  and  diplomacy,  as  well  as  sternness,  at 
times.  There  have  been  no  "cutting  in  line"  com¬ 
plaints  this  past  year,  and  cafeteria  traffic  has 
ceased  to  be  the  problem  it  used  to  be  in  previous 
years,  thanks,  in  a  great  measure,  to  the  efforts 
of  these  squad  members. 

Let's  hope  for  the  same  efficiency  and  high 
standards  in  next  year's  squad.

SCIENCE  CLUB 


The  Science  Club  this  year,  with  the  capable 
guidance  of  Mrs.  Travis,  was  off  to  an  early  start. 
At  the  first  meeting  Bradley  Ross  was  elected 
President,  Larry  Fulton,  Vice  President  and  Steve 
Root,  Secretary-Treasurer.  Elected  to  the  Execu¬ 
tive  Board  were  Harry  Preble,  Kirby  Baker,  Richard 
Niles,  and  Dave  Hopkins. 

At  the  second  meeting  several  students  gave 
demonstrations  in  the  fields  of  chemistry  and 
physics.  In  December  the  club  took  a  worthwhile 
trip  to  the  Monsanto  Chemical  Plant  in  Everett. 
Films,  talks,  a  field  trip  to  a  light  bulb  factory, 
and  more  demonstrations  are  scheduled  for  the 
remainder  of  the  year,  which  will  be  climaxed  by  a 
science  fair.  The  winners  of  this  fair  will  repre¬ 
sent  WHS  in  the  state  fair  at  M.l.T.

MATH  CLUB 


The  Math  Club,  under  the  able  direction  of  its 
new  faculty  advisor,  Mr.  Waite,  adapted  a  new 
policy  this  year.  In  addition  to  the  regular  meet¬ 
ings  and  their  sticklers,  the  executive  board 
headed  by  president  Kirby  Baker,  and  secretary 
Harry  Preble,  decided  that  a  few  field  trips  to 
nearby  institutions  to  see  such  instruments  as 
computers  would  help  liven  up  the  club.  There 
is  a  possibility  that  the  Math  and  Science  Clubs 
will  get  together  and  sponsor  an  assembly  on  the 
International  Geophysical  Year.  In  the  Spring  the 
Junior  and  Senior  enthusiasts  will  choose  four 
lucky  wizards  to  go  to  the  Math  Contest — the  spice 
of  a  mathematician's  life!

PHILOSOPHY  CLUB 


Some  one  hundred  philosophers  gathered  month¬ 
ly  this  past  year  to  be  entertained  not  only  by  Mr. 
Skerry,  but  by  interesting  speakers  as  well.  The 
group  was  headed  by  David  Pingree,  President; 
Bonnie  Bees,  Vice  President;  Joan  Thompson, 
Secretary;  and  Betsy  Snell,  Assistant  Secretary. 
Taking  advantage  of  our  local  talent,  the  club 
began  activities  by  having  Quentin  Roberts  relate 
his  summer  experience  in  Germany  as  a  student  of 
the  American  Field  Service  Program.  A  question 
and  answer  period  followed  his  talk.  For  the 
second  meeting,  Mr.  Jengunas,  a  postal  inspector 
from  Boston,  spoke  of  his  experiences  with  crim¬ 
inals  in  connection  with  the  mails.  The  Philosophy 
Club  was  honored  to  have  the  famous  Salom  Rizk 
lecture  on  his  poverty-stricken  life  in  Syria  and  his 
difficulty  in  proving  his  U.  S.  citizenship.  Such 
an  appreciative  viewpoint  of  the  U.  S.  and  a  true 
knowledge  of  democracy  as  he  possessed,  is  seldom 
found  in  any  one  person.  Pamphlets  epitomizing 


his  book  The  Syrian  Yankee  were  passed  out  to 
those  present.  Another  country  was  heard  from 
through  the  efforts  of  Helga  Hammerschmidt,  our 
Austrian  exchange  student,  who  compared  the 
conditions  and  customs  of  Austria  and  the  U.  S. 
Several  other  meetings  took  place  later  in  the  year, 
and  altogether,  the  entire  program  was  a  great 
success.

LE  CERCLE  FRANCAIS 


"Eh  bien,  on  va  commencer,"  and 
voila- — another  meeting  of  the  Cercle 
Francois  is  under  way.  Headed  this 
year  by  President  Kirby  Baker,  Vice- 
Presidente  Elizabeth  Hottel,  and  Se¬ 
cretaire  Ann  Moriarty,  the  would-be 
Frenchmen  are  again  enjoying  films, 
talks,  slides,  and  plays,  all  "en  fran- 
cais,"  of  course.  By  interspersing  a 
few  Canadian  movies  with  the  usual 
more  Gallic  activities,  the  club  got  off 
to  a  good  start.  At  Christmas,  some 
chansons  de  Noel  added  to  the  tra¬ 
ditional  French  gaiety  of  the  season. 
Talks  in  French,  recordings  of  French 
plays  and  music,  and  a  party  were  also 
on  the  agenda.  One  accomplishment 
of  the  Cercle  has  been  to  make  the 
weekly  French  magazine,  Paris-Match, 
available  to  all  French  students.  With 
the  assistance  of  Moliere,  Victor 
Hugo,  and  Madame  Genicot,  the 
groupe  should  raise  the  Tricouleur 
and  la  Belle  Langue  to  even  greater 
glory  in  Winchester  this  year.

ORCHESTRA 


This  year  the  W.H.S.  Orchestra  under  the  direc¬ 
tion  of  Mr.  Withington  and  Mr.  Janner  enjoyed  an 
interesting  and  rewarding  season.  At  the  annual 
Christmas  program,  they  gave  a  fine  performance 
and  added  much  to  the  evening  with  their  spirited 
Christmas  carols.  Then,  combined  with  Arlington 
High's  Orchestra,  they  presented  an  interesting 
concert  that  was  enjoyed  by  all  with  music  that 
appealed  to  every  taste.  They  journeyed  to  Arling¬ 
ton  with  the  Octette  and  repeated  the  performance. 
These  double  concerts  were  as  successful  as  the 
later  Spring  Concert.  W.H.S.  can  well  be  proud 
of  this  fine  group  of  musicians.

BAND 


The  enrollment  of  this  year's  Winchester  High 
School  Band  has  the  greatest  number  of  players 
than  ever  before.  The  increase  is  largely  due  to 
the  number  of  Freshmen  who  have  been  added  to 
fill  the  places  of  the  many  Seniors  who  will  leave 
this  year  .  Along  with  the  Tumblettes  the  band 
gave  many  fine  exhibitions  on  the  field  at  all  our 
football  games.  They  also  added  much  spirit  and 
excitement  to  the  Tech  Tourney.  The  winter  and 
spring  months  found  them  preparing  for  the  coming 
Spring  Concert. 

This  year  we  have  been  fortunate  in  having  as 
our  leaders — Mr.  Withington,  and  his  very  able 
assistant  Mr.  Murray.  Student  officers  are  Tom 
Hooper,  President;  Doug  Gowdy,  Vice-President; 
Larry  Longworth,  Treasurer;  Phil  Dryer,  Librarian.

MIXED  GLEE  CLUB 


Again  this  year  the  Mixed  Glee  Club  has  been 
under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Wendell  S.  Withington 
and  has  enjoyed  a  successful  year.  The  first 
appearance  of  the  Mixed  Glee  Club  was  at  the 
Christmas  program.  They  finished  the  program 
by  singing  “The  Night  Before  Christmas."  This  was 
the  highlight  of  the  show  and  was  enjoyed  by  all. 

This  year  the  club  has  been  rebuilding  its  forces. 
Although  it  was  greatly  weakened  by  graduation, 
a  large  number  of  sophomores  came  in  to  fill  the 
ranks.  A  great  deal  of  credit  goes  to  the  few  boys 
who  had  to  carry  the  bass  part  and  the  four  girls 
who  stepped  in  to  sing  the  tenor  part.  Other  per¬ 
formances  of  the  group  were  the  Christmas  Assem¬ 
bly  and  the  Spring  Concert.  Much  credit  must 
go  to  Jackie  Hogan,  the  accompanist,  and  also  to 
Mr.  Withington,  for  his  able  directing.

GIRLS'  AND  BOYS'  GLEE  CLUB 


Under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Wendell  S.  Withing¬ 
ton,  the  Girls'  and  Boys'  Glee  Clubs  took  part  in 
the  Christmas  Night  at  WHS  program.  In  addition 
they  will  perform  at  the  State  Music  Festival  this 
spring.  Although  both  groups  are  quite  small, 
each  has  worked  hard  to  present  the  same  quality 
of  music  for  which  WHS  has  always  been  noted. 
Their  music  has  varied  from  popular  show-tunes 
to  less  familiar  and  more  challenging  numbers.

STATION  WHSR 


Radio  station  WHSR-FM  is  a  completely 
equipped  broadcasting  unit  duly  licensed  by  the 
Federal  Communications  Commission,  operating  as 
a  10  watt  educational  station  at  91.9  megacycles 
on  the  FM  band.  The  studio  and  transmitting 
facilities  are  located  in  the  Speech  Arts  room.  This 
station  was  made  possible  by  a  cooperative  effort 
of  school  and  community.  The  major  portion  of 
the  transmitting  equipment  was  a  gift  of  the  Win¬ 
chester  Rotary  Club. 

This  year  WHSR  operated  from  October  to  June 
on  a  two  or  three  day  schedule  each  week  while 
school  was  in  session.  In  addition  to  the  regular 
programming  many  sports  and  other  special  events 


were  broadcasted.  Under  the  guidance  of  general 
manager  Mr.  Morse,  the  WHSR  staff  consisted  of 
two  student  station  managers,  Dave  Pingree  and 
Ruth  Ann  Leander,  and  five  departments  headed 
by  students.  During  the  1956-57  school  year  over 
two  hundred  students  actively  participated  in 
WHSR,  while  another  hundred  were  working  as 
apprentices  in  the  various  departments. 

WHSR  is  unique  in  the  educational  pattern  of 
American  secondary  schools  and  offers  a  challenge 
to  the  students  in  the  study  of  communication  arts. 
It  has  great  potential  as  a  new  medium  for  in¬ 
creasing  the  effectiveness  of  school  and  community 
relationships.

The  beginning  of  the  1956-57  sea¬ 
son  saw  Winchester  High's  Octette 
hard  at  work  preparing  for  their  initial 
performance  at  the  Red  Feather  Cam¬ 
paign  dinner.  Later  appearance  in¬ 
cluded  singing  at  the  Congregational 
Senior  Forum  Dance,  and  two  Christ¬ 
mas  performances.  The  coming  of 
springtime  brought  the  State  Music 
Festival,  Spring  Concert,  and  the  an¬ 
nual  WHS  Vaudeville  show.  These 
eight  capable  young  ladies  could 
always  be  counted  upon  to  ably  repre¬ 
sent  WHS.

With  the  coming  of  fall  the  Key¬ 
notes  were  once  again  chosen,  and  the 
capable  eighteen  were  put  to  work. 
Their  fine  voices  added  much  to  the 
musical  side  of  W.H.S.  Under  the 
direction  of  Mr.  Withington,  the  Key¬ 
notes  appeared  in  the  Spring  Concert 
and  again  in  Vaudeville.  They  are 
also  preparing  for  the  State  Music 
Festival,  and  are  hoping  to  continue 
their  fine  record.

LILIOM 


All  the  world's  a  stage,  and  the  new  auditorium 
was  all  the  world  to  us  when  we  christened  it  with 
its  first  Junior-Senior  Play,  "Liliom",  the  story  of 
a  young  carnival  barker  who  hid  his  true  feelings 
under  a  mask  of  arrogance  and  self-assurance.  He 
lived  this  way  until  he  met  and  married  Julie,  a 
young  girl  who  loved  him  with  such  faithful  and 
sincere  devotion  that  after  years  of  heartbreak  he 
revealed  his  true  character  .  .  .  even  though  after 
death. 

We  knew  this  production  would  be  ambitious 
and  far  above  the  average  high  school  venture,  but 
we  were  willing  to  gamble.  However,  from  the  mo¬ 
ment  that  Peter  made  his  boisterous  entrance,  fol¬ 
lowed  by  Micki,  Eileen,  Judy,  Carol  and  Agnes, 
through  the  challenging  death  scene  up  to  the 
tender  closing  where  Clev  explained  to  Blanche 
that  love  can  overcome  many  obstacles,  it  was 
obvious  Miss  Trickett's  efforts  were  not  in  vain; 
we  had  a  hit  on  our  hands! 

Peter  and  Carol  were  top-notch  in  the  leading 
parts,  the  audience  remarked  especially  on  the 
surprisingly  mature  and  realistic  character  portray¬ 
als  of  these  two  in  their  long  and  difficult  roles. 
Equally  applauded  were  Mary  Jean,  who  sparked 
the  stage  with  her  vim  and  vitality  as  Marie,  the 
naive  peasant  friend  of  Julie  and  Ellen,  who  made 
her  portrayal  of  Mrs.  Muskat,  the  shrewish  but 
sympathetic  owner  of  the  carousel  more  than  mem¬ 
orable.  Dana  appeared  as  Hungary's  answer  to 
Benrimo  and  Sara  Jane,  the  photographic  studio 
owner,  once  again  displayed  her  enviable  acting 
talent.  Lyn  and  Greg  showed  admirable  strength 


"Stocking  size,  please." 


as  the  stretcher  bearers  and  Jackie  was  adequate 
as  Ficsur,  the  crafty  villain  who  never  dealt  a 
winning  hand.  Bill  made  his  role  of  the  pompous 
porter,  Wolf,  one  of  the  play's  highlights  and 
Vinnie,  as  the  cashier,  made  a  "sure-fire"  debut. 
Suzanne  and  Cindy  appeared  effectively  as  the 
angels  who  escorted  Peter  to  David's  high  court 
where  he  met  well-dressed  Mike  MacDonald  and 
Dave  Guarente,  who  made  history  by  appearing  in 
a  dual  role.  In  the  closing  scene,  which  took  place 
sixteen  years  later,  Blanche  portrayed  Julie's  young 
daughter  in  fine  style.  When  the  curtain  fell  for 
the  last  time  and  the  applause  reigned  loud  and 
long,  we  knew  we  had  presented  a  show  above  and 
beyond  the  call.  We  were  proud  of  it  and  we'll 
never  forget  it.

ATHLETIC  ASSOCIATION 


The  Athletic  Association  is  what  makes  the 
sports  program  at  WHS  run  smoothly.  By  means 
of  rallies,  award  assemblies,  and  publicity,  the  AA 
tries  to  instill  a  spirt  of  enthusiasm  and  coopera¬ 
tion  throughout  the  student  body.  John  McCor¬ 
mack  as  President,  and  Vin  Murphy  as  Vice- 
President,  did  outstanding  jobs  and  showed  capable 
leadership.  This  year  the  auditorium  was  finished 
and  it  made  things  much  easier  for  the  AA.  The 
annual  AA  sponsored  Fall  Sports  Dance  and  Mid- 
Winter  Dance  were  held  with  unusual  success. 
At  the  Mid-Winter  Dance  John  Chapin  was  the 
surprise  disk-jockey  and  he  did  a  fine  job  spinning 
the  hits.  Mr.  Burns,  with  his  friendly,  easy  going, 
and  inimitable  manner,  was  tops  as  Faculty  Super¬ 
visor.  Once  more  the  AA  did  a  great  job  in  stimu¬ 
lating  school  spirit  at  Winchester  High.

G.I.C 


Every  girl  in  the  school  is  automatically  a  mem¬ 
ber  of  the  Girls'  Intramural  Council  and  is  eligible 
for  all  of  its  activities.  These  activities  cover  a 
wide  range  of  interests,  from  basketball  and  tennis 
tournaments  to  dances  and  auctions. 

Due  to  conflicts  with  a  heavy  sports  schedule 
and  the  plans  of  other  school  organizations,  the 
customary  fall  GIC  dance  was  postponed  until 
March  this  year;  therefore,  almost  all  of  its  annual 
activities  took  place  during  the  spring. 

Miss  Barnes,  faculty  advisor;  Linda  Branneman, 
president;  Brenda  Cunningham,  vice  president; 
Janet  Monro,  secretary;  Mary  Laird,  treasurer;  and 
the  executive  board  helped  to  make  the  year  a 
successful  one.

FIELD  HOCKEY 


With  several  years  of  mediocre  play  behind  us, 
we  began  hockey  this  fall  determined  to  come  out 
on  top.  Enthusiasm  shown  by  the  players  during 
practice,  and  spirit  in  games  were  two  of  the 
ingredients  which  led  to  success,  for  we  finished 
the  season  undefeated.  Captained  by  Stevie  Stone, 
who  set  the  pace  in  scoring  with  a  total  of  eleven 
goals,  we  marched  through  seven  wins  and  one  tie 
with  our  arch  rival,  Arlington.  Stick-handling  for 
the  forward  line  were  Mary  Dowling,  Betsy  Snell, 
Stephie  Hersey,  and  Judy  Dallin.  They  were 
backed  up  by  halfbacks  Anne  Moriarty,  Carly 
Clark,  Ann  Luitweiler,  and  Linda  Branneman  and 


fullbacks  Judy  Dalrymple,  Sandy  Lawson,  Nancy 
Pizzano,  and  Molly  Devany.  Our  goalie,  Carol 
Fisher,  was  only  scored  on  once  in  all  eight  games. 

Coach  Mildred  Barnes  worked  hard  with  us  for 
two  weeks  before  the  first  game  as  well  as 
throughout  the  season.  Both  she  and  the  team 
deserve  the  fine  record  that  was  made. 

The  field  hockey  team  of  1957  will  have  a  repu¬ 
tation  to  maintain,  and  with  a  core  of  ten  two-year 
varsity  players  returning,  they'll  have  the  power 
to  do  so.  Under  Ann  Luitweiler,  next  year's  cap¬ 
tain,  they  will  go  far.

CHEERLEADERS 


"Hey,  hey,  what  do  you  say?  We're  right  behind 
you  all  the  way!"  That's  the  familiar  yell  and 
feeling  among  Winchester's  peppy  cheerleaders, 
co-captained  by  Elizabeth  Hottel  and  Rita  Amico. 
The  cheerleaders  were  on  the  job  from  the  Concord 
kickoff  in  September  straight  through  to  Tech 
Tourney  time  in  March.  For  the  second  consecu¬ 
tive  year  Winchester  and  Woburn  cheerleaders  had 
a  party  the  night  before  the  Thanksgiving  game, 
and  prepared  cheers  done  jointly  at  the  big  game. 
New  black  blazers  topped  off  the  red  skirts  donned 
for  frosty  football  weather,  and  when  basketball 
season  stepped  in  smart  black  middies  over  long 
white  sleeved  blouses  were  revealed.  It's  been 
said  that  W.H.S.'s  secret  to  success  is  its  teamwork. 
The  teamwork  meant  is  the  winning  combination 
of  players,  fans,  and  cheerleaders.  In  many  a 
game  the  extra  ounce  of  fight  needed  to  win  has 
been  given  by  the  spirit  and  yells  of  the  cheerlead¬ 
ers  and  fans.  The  innumerable  practices  out  on 
the  field  and  in  the  gym  and  corridor,  the  pep 
huddles  before  the  game,  cheering  at  rallies,  the 
final  banquet,  receiving  silver  megaphone  trinkets, 
and  being  able  to  represent  W.H.S.  are  among  the 
cheerleaders'  happiest  memories.

VARSITY  CLUB 


The  Varsity  Club,  under  the  able  direction  of 
Coach  Henry  Knowlton,  is  made  up  of  all  the  male 
athletes  who  earn  a  varsity  letter  in  any  sport. 
Each  year  it  is  the  policy  of  the  club  to  present 
some  activity  or  show  which  raises  money  to  help 
pay  for  the  movies  taken  of  the  football  games. 
In  the  past,  some  of  these  activities  were  a  Donkey 
Basketball  game  and  an  exhibition  by  the  Spring- 
field  Gym  Team.  The  main  function  of  the  club 
is  to  encourage  good  sportsmanship  and  fair  play. 

The  club  this  year  is  headed  by  John  Chapin, 
President;  Mike  Callahan,  Vice  President;  Roger 
Symmes,  Secretary;  and  Harold  Ekstrom,  Treasurer.

FOOTBALL 


The  Sachems  got  off  to  a  slow  start 
this  year  with  a  25-13  loss  to  Concord. 
However,  this  loss  fired  the  team  up 
considerably,  and  after  juggling  the 
line-up  somewhat,  Coach  Knowlton 
led  the  team  to  an  1  8-0  victory  over 
Stoneham  and  a  32-13  run-away  over 
Cambridge  Latin.  One  of  the  most 
unfortunate  incidents  of  the  season 
came  when  John  Chapin  injured  his 
knee  during  the  Cambridge  Latin 
game  and  was  unable  to  return  to  the 
team  for  the  remainder  of  the  season. 
Sparked  on  by  the  determination  and 


hard  running  of  Captain  "Moe"  Russo, 
the  Sachems  downed  Lexington  14-7, 
Melrose  19-6,  Reading  19-6  and  Bel¬ 
mont  25-0.  Then  came  the  big  game 
of  the  season  with  Wakefield,  the 
Middlesex  League  crown  at  stake. 
Although  apparently  out-played, 
Wakefield  defeated  our  warriors  12-6. 
The  schedule  ended  with  the  Sachems 
squeaking  by  Woburn  14-13  in  a 
thrilling  Turkey  Day  battle.  Thus  the 
season  ended  successfully  with  seven 
wins  against  two  losses,  and  a  total  of 
160  points  scored  for  and  82  against.

CROSS  COUNTRY 


Captained  by  Ken  Brown,  and  coached  by  Tom 
Morse,  this  year's  cross-country  team  went  on  to 
win  more  fame  for  Winchester.  They  won  all 
their  dual  meets  and  the  Pilgrim  Divisional  Champ¬ 
ionship.  Then  at  the  Middlesex  League  Meet  they 
were  defeated  by  Newton.  But  the  next  week  they 
captured  the  State  Class  C  Title  and  the  right  to 
appear  in  the  New  Englands  for  the  second  year  in 
a  row.  At  Waterville,  Maine  the  New  England 
Title  fell  to  the  Sachem  harriers.  This  was  the 
first  time  in  history  that  a  team  has  ever  won  the 
title  for  two  years.  It  was  also  the  lowest  score 
ever  recorded  by  a  team.  Following  captain  Brown 
were  Harry  Ekstrom,  Mike  Callahan,  Danny  O'Con¬ 
nell,  Bill  Saurman,  Don  Seaver,  Bill  Emerson, 
Charlie  Clifton,  Quentin  Roberts,  and  Robin 
Carlson. 

The  JV's  captained  by  Dave  VanUmmerson  won 
all  their  meets  and  were  also  the  champions  of  the 
Pilgrim  Division  and  Middlesex  League.

GIRLS'  BASKETBALL 


Prospects  for  a  fine  season  were  indicated  by  the  large  turnout  of  girls  for 
the  intramural  program.  Approximately  250  girls  participated  in  round 
robin  tournaments.  Of  these  players,  100  answered  the  call  for  varsity  & 
J.  V.  practice  seasons.  This  number  of  aspirants  was  reduced  to  a  squad  of 
twenty-five. 

The  varsity  team  included  Capt.  Mary  Dowling  and  seniors  Al  Fitzgerald, 
Stevie  Stone,  Linda  Branneman,  Mary  MacNalley,  Anne  Moriarty,  and  Judy 
Dalrymple;  juniors  Betsey  Snell,  Linda  Manimon,  Carley  Clark,  and  Sandy 
Lawson. 

The  strong  J.  V.  Team  was  headed  by  co-captains  Ann  Neville  and  Jane 
Overacker.  Other  forwards  were  Sherrie  McNeill,  Stephie  Hersey,  Judy 
Dallin,  Carol  Fisher,  Ann  Luitwieler,  and  Marcia  Scott.  Guards  were  Mollie 
Devaney,  Prudy  Kimball,  Roberta  Stone,  Marcia  Smith,  Connie  Marshall, 
Debbie  Jope,  and  Elaine  Golden. 

Both  teams  went  through  a  tough  seven  game  schedule  and  emerged  with 
an  undefeated  season.  The  varsity  team  demonstrated  time  and  again  that 
it  had  what  it  takes  in  a  clutch  situation.  Four  games  were  closely  contested 
up  until  the  fourth  quarter  when  the  Winchester  team  would  pull  away  and 
go  on  to  victory.  The  tremendous  balance  of  the  team  was  a  deciding  factor 
in  all  of  these  games.  The  scoring  spark  was  shared  by  all  the  forwards. 
Particular  mention  should  be  given  to  Mary  Dowling  who  averaged  16  points 
per  game  and  Betsey  Snell  who  had  a  13  point  average.  Outstanding  re¬ 
bounding  and  interceptions  were  made  by  Linda  Branneman,  Sandy  Lawson 
and  Carley  Clark. 

The  J.  V.  Team  had  outstanding  shooters  in  Sherrie  McNeill,  Ann  Neville, 
Judy  Dallin,  and  Stephie  Hersey.  Roberta  Stone,  Mollie  Devaney,  and  Prudy 
Morton  were  fine  guards.

HOCKEY 


The  WHS  1956-57  hockey  team  had  a  very  successful  season, 
finishing  first  in  the  Northeastern  Conference  of  the  North 
Shore  League.  They  again  participated  in  the  State  Hockey 
Tournament,  winning  two  over-time  games  before  bowing  out  in 
the  semi-final  round.  Coach  Finigan's  very  able  work  in  direct¬ 
ing  the  team  was  in  a  large  measure  responsible  for  this  fine 
showing.  Captain  Leo  Callahan,  the  third  highest  school  boy 
scorer  in  the  state,  was  an  inspiring  leader  and  always  worked 
hard  for  a  victory.  One  of  the  highlights  this  team  will  long 
remember  is  the  3-2  victory  over  Lynn  English,  which  was  that 
teams  only  defeat  in  two  years  of  league  competition.  Most  of 
the  varsity  players  graduate  this  year,  but  there  are  fine  pros¬ 
pects  for  next  season  with  the  many  remaining  members  of  the 
squad  and  some  excellent  material  from  the  freshman  team. 

The  cheerleaders,  led  by  Captain  Janet  Chaffe,  were  at  every 
game  and  thrilled  the  audience  at  Lynn  and  Boston  with  fine 
exhibitions.

BOYS'  BASKETBALL 


Capt.  Mike  Callahan 


The  1957  basketball  team  carried  on  the  tradi¬ 
tion  of  outstanding  Winchester  basketball  squads 
as  it  posted  a  record  of  twenty  victories  and  three 
losses.  Under  the  able  leadership  of  Coach  Phil¬ 
lips  and  Captain  Mike  Callahan,  the  Sachems  tied 
archrival  Belmont  for  the  Middlesex  League 
championship.  Besides  Callahan,  Mr.  Phillips  had 
Roger  Symmes  and  John  Chapin  as  returning  letter- 
men  around  whom  he  built  another  highly  success¬ 
ful  team. 

Dave  Bergquist,  Quent  and  Ronny  Roberts  were 
other  senior  members  whose  contributions  to  the 
success  of  the  team  were  invaluable.  Doug  Thom¬ 
son,  and  Hank  Schumacher  were  the  other  letter 
winners  of  this  year's  squad. 

High  point  of  the  season  was  the  55  to  47  victory 
over  Belmont  in  the  last  league  game  of  the  season, 
which  enabled  the  Sachems  to  reign  with  Belmont 
as  Co-champions.  Winchester's  fine  seasonal 
record  permitted  the  boys  to  enter  the  Tech  Tourna¬ 
ment,  where  after  victories  over  Roslindale  and 
South  Boston,  they  lost  to  Belmont  by  one  point  in 
the  semi-final  round.  In  losing,  Winchester  won 
acclaim  for  its  never-say-die  attitude,  when  the 
boys  fought  back  from  a  14  point  deficit  to  go 
ahead  in  the  last  period.

GIRLS'  TENNIS 


As  soon  as  the  nets  are  up  on  the  Packer  Courts 
the  racqueteers  will  be  out  practicing.  Having  lost 
only  one  member  from  last  year's  team,  Captain 
Ann  Buros  plans  to  lead  the  team  through  a  suc¬ 
cessful  season  with  the  help  of  Carley  Clark,  Sue 
Russell,  Brenda  Cunningham,  Noel  Gove,  Micky 
Doherty  and  Stevie  Stone,  all  previous  varsity  mem¬ 
bers.  Further  improvements  will  be  made  in  the 
team  with  sophomores  Sherrie  McNeil  and  Ann 
Smith  stepping  in.  Future  prospects  look  good 
with  the  help  of  Diane  Coles  and  Gail  Pettingell. 

Dottie  Hills  has  again  consented  to  give  up  her 
time  and  coach  the  '57  team,  which  hopes  for  an 
undefeated  season.  The  usual  opponents  will  be 
Belmont,  Concord,  Malden,  Melrose,  and  Arlington.

BOYS'  TENNIS 


Mr.  McGhee  this  year  steps  into  the  active 
tennis  shoes  of  Mr.  Fitts  to  coach  the  Winchester 
Varsity  Tennis  team.  Last  year  missing  the  state 
title  by  one  point  and  pulling  upsets  never  pulled 
before,  Mr.  Fitt's  boys,  captained  by  the  able  Bob 
Becker,  set  a  fast  pace  for  this  year's  crew.  Among 
those  returning  to  form  part  of  the  varsity  are 
Captain  David  Moore,  Ricky  Smith,  Bob  Dickey, 
Doug  Gowdy,  David  Usher  and  Donald  Beck.  Dan 
Scott,  hot  from  the  varsity  of  Tabor  Academy,  is 
expected  to  hold  the  second  or  third  position, 
perhaps  playing  number  one  doubles. 

The  highlights  of  the  forthcoming  season  will 
be  the  Massachusetts  State  Tournament,  the  Intra¬ 
mural  Spring  Tournament,  and  the  matches  against 
Andover,  Belmont,  Newton  and  Groton.  The  many 
away-trips  are  also  eagerly  awaited  (no  reference 
to  the  fine  Parker  Courts)  to  combine  travel  with 
tennis.  But  traveling  faster  on  the  courts  than  off, 
the  team  can  equal  last  year's  record  and  even 
better  it.

SOFTBALL 


The  girl's  softball  team,  under  the  capable  cap¬ 
tainship  of  Alice  Fitzgerald  for  the  second  consecu¬ 
tive  year,  will  try  to  better  their  previous  season's 
record  of  five  wins,  three  losses.  With  four  starting 
seniors,  Alice  Fitzgerald,  Mary  Dowling,  Micky 
McNally,  and  Norma  Crockett  and  five  juniors, 
Ann  Luitweiler,  Stephanie  Hersey,  Betsey  Snell, 
Judy  Dallin,  and  Carol  Fisher  once  again  returning 
to  the  lineup,  Coach  Mildred  Barnes  will  have  a 
strong  core  on  which  to  build  the  team.  This  core 
will  be  strengthened  by  the  addition  of  many 
promising  sophomores.  Following  the  regular 
schedule  of  games,  the  girls  say  that  their  toughest 
competition  came  from  Arlington,  Malden,  and 
Lexington.

BASEBALL 


When  the  air  turns  warmer  and  the  snow  is  all 
melted,  Coach  Provinzano  will  start  making  daily 
trips  from  the  junior  high  to  the  high  school.  On 
this  year's  team  there  will  be  six  of  last  year's 
starting  nine.  There  will  be  three  gaping  holes 
left  by  Joe  Bellino,  Captain  Bobby  Haggerty,  and 
Junior  Quill.  These  three  holes  will  be  extremely 
hard  to  fill,  but  it  is  hoped  with  the  experience  of 
the  other  six  men,  the  “rookies"  will  have  no  trou¬ 
ble  acclimating  themselves.  A  strong  pitching 
staff  is  also  in  the  picture.  With  the  capable 
services  of  John  Chapin  still  with  the  team,  and 
with  the  addition  of  Don  Flynn  and  Craig  Daven¬ 
port  from  the  Junior  Varsity,  Winchester  will  have 
to  look  up  to  no  one  in  this  department.  With  the 
experience  of  one  championship  under  their  belts 
and  with  the  help  of  the  six  returning  “veterans", 
the  Middlesex  League  titleholders  should  retain

GOLF 


Fore!  That  was  the  war  cry  of  the  WHS  Golf 
Team  as  they  took  to  the  links  this  spring.  After 
getting  off  to  a  slow  start  last  year,  the  team 
improved  rapidly.  The  Sachems,  coached  by  Mr. 
Otis  Leary,  were  one  of  the  best  WHS  teams  to  hit 
the  fairways.  Returning  this  year  were  John 
Zirkel,  Bob  Weaver,  Bill  Schmink,  Pete  Lindvall, 
John  Fitzgerald,  and  Lyn  Olmstead.  Others  who 
bolstered  the  squad  were  Denny  Keane,  Dave 
Pingree,  Warren  Fowler,  and  Larry  Templeman. 

As  before,  the  squad  took  lessons  from  the  pro 
at  the  Winchester  Country  Club  and  played  their 
home  matches  there. 

This  year's  opponents  were  Wakefield,  Woburn, 
Reading,  Melrose,  and  Brookline.

TRACK 


This  season  promises  to  bring  an  experienced 
and  well  balanced  track  squad  to  the  cinders  for 
W.  H.  S.  The  ten  returning  lettermen  plus  a  depth 
of  returning  Jay  Vee's  will  be  going  all  out  for  the 
school  and  for  Captain  Harold  (The  Swift  Swede) 
Ekstrom. 

The  men  to  watch  out  for  will  be  Joe  Cussen 
and  Vin  Murphy  in  the  low  hurdles,  Bob  Kugler  in 
the  high  hurdles  and  high  jump,  Dan  Doherty  in 
the  440,  Captain  Ekstrom  in  the  880  and  Ken 
Brown  in  the  mile.  The  field  events  will  be  headed 
by  Bill  Mason  throwing  the  javelin,  Dave  Bergquist 
hurling  the  discus  and  Bill  Edgar  putting  the  shot. 

Concord  and  Belmont  will  be  the  teams  to  beat 
as  the  Sachems  strive  for  the  Middlesex  League 
Crown.

RIFLE  CLUB 


The  Rifle  Club,  which  is  affiliated  with  the  Na¬ 
tional  Rifle  Association,  is  rounding  out  its  first 
decade  with  a  membership  of  over  seventy-five. 
The  group  is  again  being  directed  by  Mr.  Joseph 
Aversa.  Club  meetings  are  held  every  Friday 
evening  at  the  police  practice  range.  Girls  and 
boys  of  the  upper  three  classes  are  given  an  equal 
opportunity  to  shoot  and  improve,  regardless  of 
ability. 

Connected  with  the  Rifle  Club  are  the  Girl's  and 
Boy's  Rifle  Teams.  The  members  of  the  teams 
are  selected  from  the  club  members  with  the  high¬ 
est  averages.  Rifle  Team  practice  is  held  each 
Monday  night.  Rifle  meets  are  scheduled  with 
teams  from  the  surrounding  towns.  The  captains 
of  the  year's  teams  are  Sally  Scott,  and  Bill  Ryer¬ 
son,  for  the  Girls'  and  Boys'  teams  respectively.

"Good  to  excellent":  These  are  words  that  can  often  be  heard  from  members  of  the 
ski  club  describing  the  condition  of  the  slopes  for  the  winter  week-ends.  Under  the  able 
supervision  of  Mr.  Ulin  these  members  will  pick  up  a  great  deal  of  good  pointers  at  the 
Country  Club,  on  local  hills,  or  on  the  big  slopes,  the  mountains  of  New  Hampshire. 

Several  meetings  are  held  at  which  enthusiasm  for  the  sport  is  whipped  up,  informa¬ 
tion  about  equipment  and  conditions  is  exchanged  and  exciting  color  movies  are  shown. 
This  year's  officers  are:  President,  Vin  Murphy;  Treasurer,  Larry  Longworth,  and  Secre¬ 
tary,  Dickie  Low.

TUMBLETTES 


The  Tumblettes  of  57  have  enjoyed 
a  very  successful  year  under  the  guid¬ 
ance  of  their  enthusiastic  coach,  Mr. 
Battino,  and  the  capable  leadership  of 
their  captain,  Patylyn  Bruno.  They 
have  worked  hard  and  spent  much 
time  in  attempting  to  vary  their  rou¬ 
tines  from  previous  years  and  have 
shown  their  ability  at  various  perfor¬ 
mances  throughout  the  year. 

Each  girl  has  tried  to  improve  her 
own  skill  and  ability,  as  well  as  adding 
to  the  standing  of  the  team,  and  a 
great  deal  of  credit  should  be  given 
each  one  for  her  part  in  making  this 
year  one  of  the  best  for  the  "tumbling 
ten."

GYM  TEAM 


Started  last  year,  the  boys'  gym 
team  made  great  strides  this  season. 
Led  by  Captain  Chris  King,  the  team 
gave  splendid  exhibitions  at  Vaude¬ 
ville,  for  the  American  Legion  and 
during  a  spring  assembly.  In  recog¬ 
nition  of  their  achievements  members 
of  the  team  will  receive  gymnastic 
emblems.  Purposes  of  the  group  are 
to  develop  strength,  coordination, 
flexibility  and  agility  through  gym¬ 
nastics.
